primary_roads | R Documentation |
From the Census Bureau: "Primary roads are generally divided, limited-access highways within the Federal interstate highway system or under state management. These highways are distinguished by the presence of interchanges and are accessible by ramps and may include some toll highways."
primary_roads(year = NULL, ...)
year |
the data year; defaults to 2022 |
... |
arguments to be passed to internal function |
an sf object with columns
LINEARID
: a unique line feature identifier (source)
FULLNAME
: display name (source)
RTTYP
: describes the types of roads used (source). Possible values are:
"C": county
"I": interstate
"M": common name
"O": other
"S": state regonized
"U": U.S.
MTFCC
: 5-digit geographic code assignment (see annual assignments)
Additional arguments that can be passed in ...
are:
class
Desired class of return object: "sf"
(the default) or "sp"
. sp classes should be considered deprecated as of tigris version 2.0, but legacy support is still available.
progress_bar
If set to FALSE
, do not display download progress bar (helpful for R Markdown documents). Defaults to TRUE
.
keep_zipped_shapefile
If set to TRUE
, do not delete zipped shapefile (stored in temporary directory or TIGRIS_CACHE_DIR
depending on the configuration of global option "tigris_use_cache"
). Defaults to FALSE
.
refresh
Whether to re-download cached shapefiles (TRUE
or FALSE
) . The default is either FALSE
or the value of global
option "tigris_refresh"
if it is set. Specifying this argument will override the behavior set in "tigris_refresh"
global option.
filter_by
Geometry used to filter the output returned by the function. Can be an sf object, an object of class bbox
, or a length-4 vector of format c(xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax)
that can be converted to a bbox. Geometries that intersect the input to filter_by
will be returned.
